Two days after the last post I fell while skiing and broke ribs six and seven on my left side. Hmmm. God are you succeeding in getting my attention? Broken ribs have got to be the most painful and generally least serious of injuries. I compared notes with a friend of mine who recently had open heart surgury. Sure enough: ribs hurt way more. There’s not much to do while propped up in an easy chair. Breathing hurts…movement hurts…and pain killers are over-rated. For seven days I followed the same pattern: read scripture, fall asleep, wake up, repeat. If this is what needed to happen for the Lord to put me in more intimate touch with him, so be it. Makes me wonder what he’s got planned next. Hmmm indeed.
